Certainly not redeemable on an internet message board.

Odd how you chose this avenue in lieu of your neighborhood bank     :Smiley

Even more odd how this keeps popping up. You'd think that by now all of the fraudulent instruments would be in the hands of the authorities.

What gets me is how did so many get printed without any record of them being printed. Somewhere, someone set up a large press and bought tons of paper, ink and engraving materials and printed the notes. Who did it? Where did they do it? And the boxes. Who made them? From the photos I have seen of them, they look quite rugged and well made.

They keep popping up because there are numerous real ones and in the proper hands they can be redeemed.

You response indicates that you have no idea what it is we are dealing with here.  But that is Ok as some of the other moderators have the same opinion.

Ok....Folks if you're not going to believe RO, GD, Seldom, or any of the others who have spent more hours than they care to count dealing with these so-called Federal Reserve Bonds and Boxes, maybe you'll believe the Federal Reserve itself (but I'm not going to hold my breathe or wager my paycheck on that).

http://www.newyorkfed.org/banking/frscams.html
   (That's the New York branch of the Federal Reserve Bank)


"Discovered 1930s Notes and Bonds
July 2005

The Federal Reserve is aware of several scams involving high denomination Federal Reserve notes and bonds, often in denominations of 100 million or 500 million dollars, dating back to the 1930s, usually 1934. In each of these schemes, fraudulent instruments are claimed to be part of a long-lost supply of recently discovered Federal Reserve notes or bonds.

Fraudsters often falsely claim that the purported Federal Reserve notes or bonds that they hold are somehow very special and are not known to the public because they are so secret. Fraudsters have attempted to sell these worthless instruments, or to redeem or exchange them at banks and other financial institutions, or to secure loans or obtain lines of credit using the fictitious instruments as collateral.

The Federal Reserve has never issued any bonds or notes with coupons attached. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York is not aware of any currency or debt stockpile of large denomination Federal Reserve notes from the 1930s and warns that any institution that pays out on such a claim does so at its own risk.

It should also be noted that the largest denomination of currency ever printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing was the $100,000 Series 1934 Gold Certificate featuring the portrait of President Wilson. These notes were printed from December 18, 1934, through January 9, 1935, and were issued by the Treasurer of the United States to Federal Reserve Banks only against an equal amount of gold bullion held by the Treasury Department. The notes were used only for official transactions between Federal Reserve Banks and were not circulated among the general public."

All the moderators have the same opinion, and yes we do know what we are dealing with. A person that can not prove a thing he is talking about which makes you either a conspiracy nut or a con man.
I think not sure yet but think you are the same guy that shows up every few months under a new name with the same old BS. You cry till one of us gets tired of it and bans you.
